The umbreon descended from a nearby roof, his movements graceful, he wore a purple handkerchief with a guild badge on it, and judging by the color it was certain that he belonged to one of the higher ranks. "You have been found guilty for the charges of stealing and resisting arrest. Surrender now or i will be forced to incapacitate you." The umbreon said in a commanding manner.
"Crap." Thought the pikachu, he was cornered and that shadow ball hit him hard enough to make him unable of fighting. He had no option but to surrender... unless...
There was no choice, now was the perfect time to use the orb. He had no idea if it would work, but he had to try. "I surrender, please don't hurt me." Chupeli said while preparing the orb behind his back.
"Good." the umbreon took out his badge with the intention of teletransporting the pikachu back to the guild, but just as he was about to touch him, Chupeli launched himself forward pinning him to the ground and thrusting the orb in his chest. The umbreon struggled but soonly the orb disappeared underneath his fur, making all his limbs go flat one by one until only a hollow shell remained. "It... it really worked." the pikachu said as he got up, grabbing the now empty suit. Before he could inspect it further however, he heard voices coming down the corner.
"Shit, the patrol must had heard our fight." He glanced one last time to the deflated umbreon. "Sorry pal..." he said before putting his legs inside the suit. "This better works or it will be a pretty embarrassing thing to watch." Chupeli carefully put his limbs in the suit, at the end he looked like a kid with an umbreon onesie. "Here goes nothing..." he said before putting the suit's head over his own, and in a moment everything went black.

"Chief... chief are you alright?" A voice called to Chupeli, who slowly opened his eyes only to found an armaldo and a parasect in front of him. Chupeli quickly recoiled and assumed a battle stance. "Wow wow chief calm down, the danger is over." the parasect interrupted.
"Wait, chief? Does that mean..." Chupeli raised one of his paws only to see that black fur had replaced his previous vibrant yellow one. He looked behind him to see more of the same but with yellow circles along his back and paws, also his thunder shaped tail replaced by a much more rounder one. The orb worked and now Chupeli was now an umbreon.
"Are you ok chief?" The armaldo asked.
"Yes, sorry. The outlaw was too strong and managed to knock me down." Chupeli said, trying to sound like the umbreon did. "He must have gone west from here, i want you to double the efforts in that part of town. I will retire to see myself checked for any injuries. Now go."
"YES CHIEF" both of the officers said before parting off.
"Well, that was easier than i thought." the new umbreon said.
Chupeli saw a nearby puddle and decided to look at his reflection. Starring back at him was not the fluffy pikachu he saw all his life but the serious face of the umbreon, piercing red eyes, two big ears and a golden circle in the middle of his forehead. "Well well, you have quite the handsome looks Barret... wait, where did i get that name?" Chupeli said confused, but soonly the answer came in the form of a small headache. The umbreon's memories came rushing towards him: he was called Barret and was the chief captain of the guild. He was condecorated multiple times for his tenacity and abilities to pin down and capture any outlaw. He was also married with a sylveon named Rose, a caring but cheeky ex adventuring partner.
Looks like the orb had more things that Chupeli expected as he had now acquired not only Barret's memories but also his personality, which would explain how he managed to convince the officers so quickly. "You have quite a good life pal, it would be perfect as a way to lay low for a while." The new umbreon said while admiring his new face. "I think i'll keep being you for the moment, after all, nobody would suspect the chief." With a big smile on his face, "Barret" took his badge from the ground and place it back on his handkerchief, now he looked completely the part.
The umbreon finally exited the horrid alleyway and wondered what to do next. He could go to his new house and have a good time with "his" wife or he could go back to the guild and find a way to clear his name. But one of the options seemed more tempting than the others and that was to go get some revenge on his former friend Nit.
With his new status as the head chief and his little orb, there was quite the fun to be had... indicates the next chapter needs to be written. |
